From a technical perspective, Gold is currently trading at a price level worth considering for potential entry points.
Let’s examine the 1-hour Gold chart below before diving into the analysis:
Using the Price Action Analysis (Trader Pressure) approach, Gold appears to maintain a bullish/uptrend market condition. However, we should also anticipate a potential trend reversal if the price breaks the above support area or consolidates further.
By observing the candlestick history, we can identify potential buy entry opportunities. However, to remain objective, I’ll provide both buy and sell entry setups.
From the chart above, we can observe that buyer pressure (long green candles) is gradually driving the price higher, while the sellers' attempts (red candles) are insufficient to counter this movement, forming higher lows. This indicates that buyers continue to dominate the formation of certain price levels. Nevertheless, sell opportunities can still arise in Gold trading.
On the chart:
- Resistance Area: Marked by lines above the price (2681.92 – 2670.53).
- Support Area: Marked by lines below the price (2641.09 – 2629.42).
Entry Setup Options
1. Breakout Opportunity Setup
- Buy Entry: If the price closes above the upper resistance area (2681.92) on the 1-hour candle, prepare for the best buy entry positions.

- Stop Loss:
- For buy entries, place a stop loss if the price closes below the lower boundary of the resistance area (<2670.53).
- For sell entries, place a stop loss if the price closes above the upper boundary of the support area (>2641.09).
- Maintain a minimum risk-reward ratio of 1:1.
2. Pullback Setup
Sell Position:
- Use the resistance area as the pullback zone.
- If the price closes within this area on the 1-hour candle, consider entering a sell position.
